Things went sour in my efforts to by myself a new guitar, but I picked up a decent mandolin this weekend. It's a Washburn and retails at about $400 but I picked it up for $100. Sounds good and although the fingering is a little tighter than guitar and the chords are structured differently, it's not that hard to play. If I can find someone locally that gives lessons in it, I'll definitely go.
